Keep with it kwak, once you get to learn maps and the way the battles unfold in those maps you start to see certain no go zones and areas which would give you an advantage. Tbh it's mad frustrating but you'll have a good gam. N that'll be you hooked trying to better that good game :)

Either invite them or vive versa.
But if you click triangle when your on home screen in friends sometimes it comes up join session, sometimes you will be on opposite sides, its pot luck.
I'll be back on at 9.30, if its not too late 4 ya.

Sharkoon Digital Headset (http://www.sharkoon.com/html/produkte/headsets/x-tatic_digital/index_en.html?id=2)
it may seem expensive at £105, but well worth the pennys that I saved up.
impressive Dolby Digital surrounds feel (4 mini speaker in each ear! front, centre, back and bass channels) with good detail and sound range (I can hear direction of gunfire/foot steps in cod) lots of control over each channel's volumn, inc mic level.
I watch films/play games on it and I can say it is as good or better then a £400 5.1 system setup! :thumleft:

oh hell i just realised that with the arrival off my new PS3 will come the agro of picking a new name since i cant use londonmassiv as that was the flatmats choice and is on his ps3.
Dammit! It took friggin ages to get a name that wasn't already in use so i'm not looking forward to going thru all that palaver again :roll:
Any suggestions are welcome cos i know i'll run out of inspiration after about 4 goes.
And anyone who says "spiderman" thinking it wont be taken already needs a slap!
can you believe Quiff Wichard wasnt available.?? aaagghhh

Thats a bit nice. Sahme its not wireless tho, that'd be bloody great!
I was online for about an hour'ish last night and got 3 kills :( i think people think its funny now because they have started sneaking up behind me and doing my throat :(
You and me both mate. It got to a point where i was laughing at all the different ways they were killing me. One guy was quick enough to run at me, get a claymore out and plant it in front of me and blow me to bits before i even fired one shot at him!
I know with these games tho a lot of it is in knowing the map really well. At the moment i'm just wandering about aimlessly for the most part. May as well be wearing a sign saying "practice your kills on me"
I'm a lot better at SOCOM tbh.

You too mate. I enjoy all the battles I'm having with other .orgers and some other mates. Love it when I'm playing battles with a good mate of mine and all of a sudden he starts shouting "ayeup, so and so from your weird vtwin biking gang is on the other team".
Anyways, reason for my post gone 3am.....I now have an official piece of paper from the hospital saying I now have 2 weeks off work to recover from my operation and play COD. One of the trolley pushers asked what I was doing with my time off, told him would be playing online, so he is adding me as a mate on PS as he will be online during his none shift days lol. See, MW2.....bringing like minded friends together!!!!

Not sure if you are already but FYI a hard wire connection will always be better. I test mine, using wireless is up to 6 MB which is good, but with hard wire its up to 12 MB (may due to me having a crap wireless router) online game play is noticeably smoother. worth the extra wire running through the room.
custard
07-01-10, 02:41 PM
yup. hardwired. think the problem is ping and latancy.
when joining games it starts looking for anything less than 50ms. (current ping is about 30..) doesnt find any so then goes <60, <70 etc (or whatever increments it uses)
so frankly i blame everyone else for having shonky connections :) therefore i am brilliant at this game and not as crap as i appear.

Well this is just great for me aint it. I get my PS3 on monday and play online monday night. Then have the dentists on Tuesday so pop to my mums afterwards...and it frigging snows again and traps me here. Its exactly what happened before xmas when i had to go to the dentist too and got trapped here ffs.
Only its worse now as my poor ps3 is all alone at home, i can hear it calling my name from here.

my ps3 slim is very noisy.. fan noise.. is that normal.. ?
and it makes a noise like the very irst pc's when thinkin . click click kinda knock noise.
the UMP with red dot, sleight of hand, stopping power and steady aim are good setup to start with, it gives you the best fire power and speed to react.

Mine does the same but i dont think its the fan, i thought it was the CD being read as i played. Is that not normal then?
Got half a mind to go into a game shop where they have one set up and ask them, cos i'm sure if we asked Sony they'd simply say "they all do that sir".
is it happening on initial load up of a game or consistently while running fan noise shouldnt be too much of a worry it's smaller so they work harder to expell the hot air over the fat gen ps3.

HDMI cables.
mine are supporting 1080.. are real good.. or so I rckon at least and were only £2.95... I have 4 one on each hard drive recorder in the house and one on the PS3
but today ... was in gamezone and saw some for £30 SOME FOR £50.. AND IN CURRYS SOME FOR £MORE..
are there better quality ones?? my cheap ones still make the picture look ace?
so.. me confused.com
apologies- slight derail from O.P
All HDMI cables are the same, anyone who buys anything other the the cheapest is a fool.
It would be like soumeone buying a better quality USB cable to improve the sound quality of their Ipod

I guess if you got a £3000 tv you may want to spend at least £100 on a HDMI to go with it just because.
mind you spending at least £20 would mean better quality cable handling frequency better?

Thats not true mate, better quality cables of any type use better quality materials, cable, outer jacket (more insulated, so wont be effected as much by magnetic fields or power cables close by) connectors etc etc.
For instance, speaker cable, good ones use oxygen free copper or gold plated strands etc.
Cables are judged by how much signal is lost through resistance (i think) cheap ones will lose some signal however small.
If cheap cables were no worse then why dont professionals use them?
I'd buy the best you can afford, you get what you pay for.

I was gonna suggest asking him as my knowledge is limited to say the least ;)
Thats not true mate, better quality cables of any type use better quality materials, cable, outer jacket (more insulated, so wont be effected as much by magnetic fields or power cables close by) connectors etc etc.
For instance, speaker cable, good ones use oxygen free copper or gold plated strands etc.

All that is true for speaker cables as they handle analogue signals. I don't know all the technical reasons but HDMI is digital, it sends a set of zeros and ones from one computer chip to another.
I suppose a really crappy cable may not have a good connection and could fall out and thus reduce quality. However HDMI is not affected by magnets power cables or anything like that.
The fact that speaker cables make a difference means that people just assume (like you have) HDMI cables make a difference as well.
If you can tell the difference between a £5 cable and a £100 cable I would be amazed
Anyway, don't want to derail the thread too much.
It was my understanding that more expensive/extravegant cables were a must for an analogue systems, as the potential chance for interference was quite high, but for HDMI which is digital it doesn't really matter. I've only got a cheapy and the picture is fine.

As someone else has said HDMI is a digital signal, Ones and Zeros. It works or it doesn't work. So buy cheap as you can.
with expensive cables you get blinger colours, otherwise you just get the usual black ;)

You need either the red dot sight or the holographic if you have them.
Steady Aim and Stopping Power to give you a better chance of killing them before they kill you.
I'd have a shotgun as the secondary weapon so if you find yourself in close quarters you can use that as one well aimed shot will kill them.

the UMP with red dot, sleight of hand, stopping power and steady aim are good setup to start with, it gives you the best fire power and speed to react/run away with ;)
